1 Physical and Chemical Changes

2 Matter Anything that has mass and takes up space (has volume). Matter
Pure Substances Elements e.g. carbon Compounds e.g. CO2, H2O Mixtures Solutions e.g. salt water Mechanical e.g. pizza

3 Matter Can be described as
Physical property – description of substance. Ie. Colour, smell, taste, density. Chemical property – Describes how a substance reacts when mixed with other substances. ie. Gas burns in heat and oxygen.

4 Physical Change A change that does not produce a new substance.
Usually reversible e.g. melting ice, dissolving salt

5 Chemical Change A reaction takes place creating a new substance.
Usually hard or impossible to reverse. Ex. Cooking an egg

6 There are 5 clues that a chemical change may have occurred…
1. A new colour appears.

7 2. Heat or Light is given off.

8 3. Bubbles of Gas are formed.

9 4. A new solid material forms (precipitate).

10 5. A new odour is made.

11 What do you think? 1. Sugar dissolving in tea?
2. Breaking water up into hydrogen and oxygen gas? 3. Burning a log in a campfire? 4. Crushing an Aspirin? 5. Metal Rusting? 6. Lighter fluid burning? 7. An egg rotting? 8. Boiling water? 9. Test tubes in picture  ?
